Gotcha, sounds all good…Just need a phone call!!! I emailed the CP with my resume and let him know that I'm willing and wanting to move to south florida. Have plenty of time in many different planes and international time. All one can do is wait and see!

Miami Air TDY
Can someone explain the following Miami Air item?:
Frequent TDY base in Amsterdam, Leipzig and Bucharest
1. How long are your TDY assignments?
2. Do you get to keep your personal items at your TDY location? In other words, do you have to pack all your stuff for each trip?
3. Is there language in your contract regarding TDY?
In comparison, Omni has a 90 day TDY!!! Gone from home the entire 90 days. They are required to check out of their Spain TDY assignment for each trip. Alas, there is little if any financial incentive to bid this TDY, thus it has gone Junior Assignment.
Omni negotiations are beginning soon and this item is a sore spot. Just wanting to see what "industry standard" is out there.

Leipzig & Bucharest were for military troop movements, so we're not likely to go back there anytime soon. Amsterdam is on for this summer.
Our TDYs are normally 30 days. I wasn't here for any of the ones in the past, so I can't answer detail questions, but I'm 99% sure they left their stuff in the rooms.
TOYs are covered in the contract in Section 14. Both Omni and Miami Air are IBT local 1224, so the contracts should be available for review thru the local.
